[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 3221273, member: 9374"] Yes, GoodRx is legit, and yes you have to show the coupon every time you pick up the script. But you don't have to have a membership, a login, give them your email or anything. You simply download the app, look up your prescription by name, input the dosage and number of pills and it gives you a list of pharmacies local to you and the cost for that med at that pharmacy - with their coupon. It takes just a few seconds at the pharmacy to input the codes. Done. I was at Wally World and my wife texted and asked me to pick up her script - it's an old, cheap BP med. Nothing special. So I go to the pharmacy and pick it up. The lady tells me it's $34. WTH? I asked, "Did our insurance pay ANYTHING on that?" Nope. Not a thin dime. Fecking great. So I pay for it and walk away. As I'm walking down the aisle, I smack myself in the forehead... I pull up my GoodRx app on the phone - and for 90 pills it's $10. Sh|t. I just gave Wally World's freaking pharmacy an extra $24 because I didn't bother checking the app before paying. Dammit! We buy meds for my mother-in-law, father-in-law and both sisters-in-law and send them to them in the Caribbean. Using GoodRx has saved us MANY MANY hundreds, probably THOUSANDS on their meds - mother in law has been on some expensive seizure meds. So in short, yeah, it's legit. And after dealing with the shenanigans at WalMart, CVS and Walgreens every. single. day. I don't want to give them a single penny more than I have to. As a provider I don't often recommend one pharmacy over another, but sometimes I do give the nod to the smaller local guys when I have a chance. And GenScripts in Tulsa is great, too. [/QUOTE]
